Clint Black - A Mind To lyrics

Now, I'm not talking tough,

Telling the truth ought to be enough

I've had my share on the darker side

Sitting and starring at a TV screen,

Racking my brain over all the things.

If I'd just been there

I could have tried things to do

I can't help but think of more

I could fill my life wothout ever leaving home

I could see the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World

And even build a few more of my own. (If I had a mind to.)

Quit my job never mind the pay,

Maybe go figure out the CIA

Chase the paper and pass the bar,

Show Iacocca how to build a car

Jump up and run a three minute mile,

Sit around and watch my baby smile

That's what I might do , if I had a mind to.

No, I don't wanna blow my horn,

No telling how many souls I've worn

And what kind of shoes, when I had shoes

I'm still losing a bridge or two,

But the troubled water's gonna run on through

You can't always win, but you can always lose

But I don't turn my head for things that pass me by

And I'm gonna have a look around

I could gather all the diamonds in the sky

Hold every one and never leave the ground,

If I had a mind to.

Fly through the eye of a hurricane,

Freeze my body like David Blaine

Be the first to find life on Mars,

Go up and sell a few candy bars

Climb a rainbow and kiss the sun,

Walk on the moon when the day is done

That's what I might do, If I had a mind to.

Somewhere someone's doing everything I've said

I don't have to do anything, I could do it in my head

If I had mind to.

Sail away and be Jacques Cousteau,

Or the Crocodile hunter on a TV show

Be the king of the one night stand,

Front the Coral Reefer Band

Ski Colorado where there ain't no snow,

Plant a tree and watch it grow

That what I might do.

Go out and buy me a suit and tie,

Go to work everyday and be a regular guy

Smoking big cigars all day,

Be the President of the USA

Get a tattoo and bleach my hair,

Open a window and breathe the air

That's what I might do, if I had a mind to...
